AN AUCKLANDER'S INVENTION.
(Received 8.13 a.m.) LONDON, April 19. The British and German post offices are submitting Mr. Donald Murray's accelerated telegraphic printing system to exhaustive practical tests between London, Edinburgh and Berlin. [Mr. Donald Murray is the son of Mr. John Murray, inspector of the Bank of New Zealand, and was on the press of Auckland, and subsequently on the staff of the "Sydney Morning Herald." A common mistake made as to his invention is to suppose that he Inaugurated ordinary automatic printing by telegraph. That is ten years old, and can he seen working in every large newspaper office, club and news-distributing centre in London. The point of Mr. Duncan's invention is that of increased speed by means of facilitated duplication, and it is believed in many quarters that the innovation will have a considerable effect upon telegraphy in the future.]
